according to non-anime Marxists postmodernism is philosophy arising mostly after WW2 centered on the proposition that everything is power games and truth is whatever power says it is, with lots of obscurantism and contempt for Marxists and the working class, so they hate it

Jordan Peterson hates it because he considers it the same thing as Marxism

I guess it has nothing to do with postmodernism as a critical lens (in literature) except for the diametrical opposition stuff?

it might! and it might be the same thing as poststructuralism in that context! and it might not! it's like a pinata of possibilities

i have to admit it's kinda nice sometimes when the mob decides they're going to arbitrarily redefine some word or set of concepts that i don't understand because there's always a chance i'll get it this time around but something tells me this isn't one of those times.

there isn't that much to get this time around honestly, it's pretty much just getting made into another zero-content snarl word that just means "whatever i don't like" like capitalism and communism and liberalism and socialism and cynicism
